China:
In a daring raid through the Bungo channel, The Battleship California has succesfully entered the Sea of Japan. A Russian Gunboat and Ironclad sailing the straits of Tsushima met with the powerfull 15' guns and sank within minutes.
South of Japan a Russian Warship met the same fate, when the Armoured Cruiser San Diego sailed through van Diemen's straits.
Philipine Sea
TaskForce 12 sinks two German and one British transport south of Manilla, and a British Warship just west of them.
Indian Ocean
In an intense battle the US Frigate 'Nantucket' was sunk by a British warship near Bombay
Black Sea
Aerial Bombardments on the docks of Sebastopol, Odessa and Constantinople. No Warships appear to be left in port. Secundary targets (being the coastal defenses) were severely damaged. Ankara was left of all but the last defenders, and the city was taken. There is little hope the city will survive the Russian counterattack by forces dug in on the mountains overlooking the ransacked center, but nevertheless the order was given to hold ground, if only to secure the roads to Mosul and Smyrna.
Adriatic Sea
The first elements of the 6th Fleet have cleared the Adriatic of German gunboats blocking passage to Milan and Trieste.
Canada
Vancouver never recuperated from last month attack. The abandoned city was taken by US forces, while the road to Alberta was cleared of British forces.
Congress tired of war
Delegates of Congress and the Senate have negotiated cease-fire's with both British and Russian diplomats. President Grant had been pondering what to do next, now that victory was so close.
The French Ambassador was asked to come to Capitol Hill, and his plea for a continuing effort against the British, who had so cowardly attacked the French Polynesian colonies, convinced most representatives to withdraw their proposal for a cease-fire, and militairy operations could continue.
Operations in Canada resumed
US airships were then ordered to Winnipeg, and after intensive bombardments the defenders fled to the forests east of the city.
